It's generally easiest to just copy this and change things as you see fit. Keep in mind that at least 1 button on the pad has to be used to switch to the next layer in the stack or you will be stuck in that layer FOREVER! D: +In the case of DEF this is key `KC_FN0`. Also keep in mind that the last layer that you add does not have a comma after its closing bracket but any other layer does! + +Which brings us nicely to the next part, the layer switching logic. Under the keymaps look for `PROGMEM fn_actions[]` this function handles the switching between layers, as you might have noticed every layer in the keymap has its own KC_FNx key. This is the key responsible for switching you from layer to layer. +The number that is at the end of the keycode corresponds with the code in the function. +`[0] = ACTION_LAYER_SET(HDN, ON_PRESS),` When `KC_FN0` is pressed the keyboard switches layer `HDN` on when the key is pressed down. Add an extra line for your layer here as well. + +Now for the LEDs, if you plan on adding extra LED's to the keyboard to indicate other layers you have to first define the pin that the LED will be using in `gamenum.c`. +Look for this piece of code: + +``` + DDRD |= (1<<4); + PORTD &= ~(1<<4); +``` + +Copy it and change the letter after DDR and PORT to the letter of your pin. Change the 4 to the number of your pin. `DDRx |= (1<event.pressed) { + PORTC &= ~(1 << 6); // PC6 goes low + PORTD |= (1<<4); //PD4 goes high + } + break; +``` + +This is the code for the KC_FN1 button. Notice how we check against what key is pressed in the case and then set pin C6 low and pin D4 high.
